Hello from Colombia!

[Colombiafrank]

Hi everyone!

I'm Frank, I'm a Swiss living in Colombia since 2015 who's just starting to discover this intriguing sport!
I worked in finance for 20 years in Switzerland, then I traveled around the world and finally I decided to settle in this beautiful country to start my company. Now I run a luxury tour operator here.

 

I've always been close to golf (my dad and some close friends play back home) but I just started to learn. Colombia is actually a dream golf destination in my opinion, it has it all, all year round and is still undiscovered. Smth to pique your curiosity 😉

 

This week I played my first 9-hole course, lost so many balls haha but I'm excited to get better so that I can play all the courses in my adoptive country!

 

Also, I got this set from a friend (not sure if the descriptions are "well" written).

• Driver: Callaway Epic MAX LS Driver
• Wood: Callaway Epic MAX 5 Wood Regular (Project X HZRDUS Smoke iM10 60)
• Irons: Ping Eye 2 Irons 4-9
• Wedges: Ping Eye 2 Wedge PW, Ping G2 SW
• Hybrid: Nickent 3DX IW RC 23° 4 Hybrid Regular Flex SR 2.5
• Putter: MD Golf Superstrong STR40  #1 Putter
• Ball: TaylorMade Distance +

 

So any advice/insight for beginners is appreciated!

 

best,

Frank

I had the chance to play at La Cima Golf Club, situated about 45-60 minutes east of Bogotá in the Andes. At around 3,000 meters (9,843 feet) elevation, the combination of challenging terrain and stunning mountain vistas made it a memorable experience. If you're ever in Colombia, it's a must-visit for any golf enthusiast.
